[QUOTE="jrkotz, post: 2703094, member: 24189"] I've been through a few different rifle scopes trying to find a solid go-to for most of my LR hunting rifles. I'm a fan of higher magnification, I find it helpful for bench work, and identifying game at longer range. My requirements are a low power of 5 at the highest, 20+ on the high end. I require some type of illuminated reticle, and a quick elevation turret. Weight is a big factor for me. I've landed on the Leupold VX6HD 4-24x52 CDS-ZL2 with the firedot illuminated reticle (pn 179294). Weighing in at 25.4 oz with great glass, and having a good track record for reliability, I think I've found what I'm looking for. Other considerations is the Swaro Z5i 5-25 at only 19oz, but after an unexplained shift in POI on a 6 creed wearing a Z5, I'm hesitant Does anyone else have a scope they'd recommend I should consider? Thanks in advance, happy new year gentlemen [/QUOTE]
